“It was my second time at T in the Park,” he said. “I came up with a group of friends.

“We were camping and the weekend was absolutely amazing.

“We really loved it and loved the new site and had a great time.”

Fred, who hails from Derbyshire, added: “The song Uptown Funk came on inbetween sets and as we were waiting for Jessie J to come on.

“I turned to my friends and said, ‘This is my song. I have to dance’.

“So I started dancing in the middle of a crowd and it got bigger and bigger until everyone circled me cheering me on.

“It was completely improvised and I’ve never done anything like that before.

“I’m not a professional dancer.

“ I just like to dance.

“That’s what I came to the festival for.

“I didn’t realise that I was being filmed until after I started dancing.

“It’s slightly surreal and it’s weird that a tiny concept like dancing can reach so many views, but it’s also thrilling.

“A lot of my friends know that I love to dance so they weren’t really surprised when they saw me dancing.

“They have been very supportive and saying it’s amazing.

“It’s been all good comments really.”

Fred admits he has had a cheeky peak of the video that is being shared on websites and social media at home and abroad.

“I’ve seen the video once or twice,” he said.

“It’s obviously very weird to watch yourself on the screen but it made a lot of people smile and it made me smile.”

He is now hoping his fancy footwork will the first step to an acting career.

“I have left school and I am going to drama school in October because I want to be an actor and maybe a dancer and a singer as well,” Fred said.

At the end of his dance, he collapsed exhausted as pals piled onto him and praised him for providing one of the feel good moments of the festival that saw performances from the likes of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds , The Prodigy and The Proclaimers at Strathallan Castle.

Fred said: “The highlight for me was seeing Sam Smith. I was right at the front when he performed.

“I also loved Kodaline.

“They were great as were Catfish and the Bottlemen.

“All we wanted to do when we went to T in the Park was to have an amazing time, see some amazing acts and just hang around and have a lot of fun.

“That is what we did and that is what the video encapsulates, having fun at a festival really.

“It’s my favourite festival to go to and if I can afford it I will be back next year.”
